じょうしょうはば
noun
extent of a rise; margin of increase
quantitychange
1. extent of a rise; size of an increase; margin of gain
How far something has gone up — a price, a stock index, a temperature — stated as the size of the movement rather than the final figure. Common in news reporting on markets and weather.
上昇幅(じょうしょうはば)(おお)きい
The increase is large.
The rise in the stock price was the largest on record.
In the afternoon, the temperature rise turned out to be smaller than expected.
They say this price increase will be held to within three percent.

(はば) (width) attaches to many words of change to name the size of the movement, so this family is worth learning together.
